1

Start by cutting the broccoli into similar-sized pieces and giving it a good rinse.

2

Place a large pot of water to heat to boiling over medium-high heat.

3

When the water is at a rolling boil, prepare the ice bath by combining water and ice cubes in a large bowl.

4

Add salt to the boiling water, followed by the broccoli florets. Add the broccoli to the pot in small batches to keep the water boiling.

5

Cook for one minute, then remove one piece from the pot and plunge into an ice-water bath. Continue cooking in 30-second increments until the broccoli is the tenderness you prefer.

6

Remove the cooked broccoli from the ice water bath and lay it out on a linen or paper towel-lined sheet pan to dry.
